No....I think I will try avoid a c/section and try for a normal delivery. Its my fourth baby and I had the others all normal deliveries. The recovery from a c/section will take about a year and I will be doing this on my own (ok have family support) but its not the same as having a partner at home, so the quicker the recovery time the better.

I won't get an update on Wednesday as his father is coming here before he goes to see his son. His father is very difficult to get information out of (I don't think he is deliberately being difficult), I think its just a mixture of him not knowing and not broaching things with his son, as he is treading on eggshells, not wanting to set him back in any way, and also, men (apologies - no sexism intended) don't relay things in the detail us ladies do lol!!! As his mother isn't going personally to see him in the hospital, then I am not getting the detail I feel that I would normally from her.

I am trying to let him know that I still care about him, whilst giving him the time and space he needs to recover. He does appear to be recovering, then the rest is up to him.

Thanks for your support x
